January 1994- Kids for Christ International (KFCI) began in a recreation center in North Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Philadelphia Christian Church started this ministry as an outreach to help build the Church. The ministry was designed to reach out to children of the inner city with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. While reaching out to the hearts of the children, we also hoped to bring the Gospel to parents and adults.

October 2002- KFCI became an International ministry with a branch being started in Pamaidang, Thailand. The ministry was started in a Youth Hostel that houses children who, through parents and other family members, have been given the opportunity to live in a Christian environment while completing their education. Many of the children in the hostel faced being sold into prostitution had they not been brought into this care. Ahtapa Sinlee and his wife, Leah, direct this ministry as well as work very hard doing everything to maintain 68 children. Two KFCI teams go out every Saturday to different villages proclaiming the Gospel of Christ. Many Buddhists have been led to Christ through this ministry and it is having a great impact on the children's schools.

December 2004- KFCI moved to St. Louis, Missouri after much prayer and searching for God's direction. The ministry was closed in Philadelphia due to not being able to secure help to continue the work. This decision was one of the hardest we ever had to make. God left us with no doubt that this was His will for continuing the work. St. Louis has five inner city ministries that KFCI will be able to work with. We are now involved with two ministry locations.

January 2005- KFCI was started in two locations in Myanmar (Burma). We were able to teach how to start KFCI ministries at Eastern Bible Institute in Yangon. Travel is limited in this country and it is up to the Burmese people to take the Word out. Two students were interested in starting this type of ministry in their prospective areas. One ministry would be started in a village and the other in Yangon, a city of 5 million people.

January 2006- KFCI launched in China. Due to the political climate, we are not able to give much information about our progress there. We do know that the ministry is growing, but leadership is under persecution.

January 2007- KFCI started in two new US locations. The Halls Ferry Christian Church chapter meets twice a month under the direction of Jan Fordyce. Leo Lavin directs a monthly KFCI meeting in Baltimore, MD. This ministry works through the Severn Christian Church.

February 2007- KFCI was started in the Philippines. We are partnering with the International Christian College of Manila. A team of four is selected from the student body to go out monthly to train indigenous leaders in local churches to establish KFCI branches. Currently, there are five locations with one being added each month. ICCM is overseeing the entire endeavor.

June 2007- KFCI started a branch in Mobile, AL. Meeting twice a month, this ministry is directed by Dennis Moss.
